What is The MAC?
- The MAC has been created around the concept of Periodization - The planned manipulation of training variables in order to maximize training adaptations and to prevent the onset of overtraining syndrome.
- “MAC” is short for “Macrocycle”. A macrocycle is an annual strength and conditioning program that works towards reaching optimum body composition (increased lean muscle tissue, decreased body fat) and peak performance.
- The Mac is broken into smaller training blocks called mesocycles. Each mesocycle represents an 8-Week block of training designed to accomplish a specific adaptation: Stabilization, Strength, Power, and Performance (See Picture Below).
- Each individual training session in the 8-Week mesocycle is referred to as a microcycle. This is the most important functional tool of planning because its structure and content determine the quality of the training.

What is The MAC Combine Challenge?
- The Mac Combine Challenge is a total of six fitness tests. Three testing strength and three testing performance (See Picture Below).
- Participants are broken into teams with their fitness scores added together and “challenging” the other teams to see whose team can score the most points.
- In addition to the fitness tests, participants may request a weigh-in, body fat assessment, and girth measurements taken. No points earned in these areas.
- The Combine Challenge is a fun way to help improve exercise adherence and therefore results!
- Team challenges are a great way to build powerful bonds with fellow team members and coaches.
- By starting/ending each year with the challenge and one half way through the year results can be monitored to assess for improvements and accountability.
